After graduating from Princeton in 1981, Spitzer went to Harvard Law, and the summer after his first year he worked for the New York attorney general's antitrust division, then headed by Lloyd Constantine.

Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz was also forming a favorable impression of Spitzer at approximately this time and recently said of him: "He has a creative and innovative mind, and he always wants to do what's right."

Poor Eliot. Elected by a landslide in 2006 and crashed and burned like Jim Greevey! What is it with Democrats who self-destruct?

A one-day headline, so the media can get back to pimping for Obama.
If Hildabeast wants an exit strategy, the Clintons will pull the rug out from Spitzer, she will declare that NY needs her, withdraw from the presidential race and run for NY Gov.

Not clear if he will actually resign.

Just did a Google search:
http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&q=spitzer+resign&btnG=Search

and the stories are all over the place...“resigns”, “expected to resign”, “may resign”, “does not resign”, “likely to resign”, “should resign”...

My thoughts exactly. I know where my priorities lie.

1) Find out what the women looked like who could charge that much.

2) Find out more about this Spitzer dude’s hypocritical past fighting so-called “sex trafficking”.

If you do a Google search for Feminism and Sex Trafficking, you will find that both the left wing and non-libertarians on the right define it as all prostitution, no matter how voluntary, that involves crossing state or national boundaries.

They only spice up their propaganda by mentioning the much rarer cases where the women are doing things against their will (for instance, Condi Rice said something about 40,000 slaves being transported to Germany for the World Cup and the Germans ended up stopping only one van with 5 Polish women who wanted to do what they were planning to do).

I was in Turkey last week which is supposed to be the slave trading capital of the world. Tons of young women are working as prostitutes, but they seem to all have cell phones and designer clothes.

Spitzer deserves to fry because of his hypocrisy in fighting “sex trafficking” while planning to cheat on his wife. Why don’t both liberal and conservative politicians finally realize that men should have some backbone and be honest about what they want, instead of making things illegal because they fear that women voters might not like it if they don’t.

Of course, Marc Rudov is about to appear on Bill OReilly with comments of his own on how great the Spitzer marriage might have been (I have no comment or knowledge on that subject).

Back to the $5500 prostitutes: I was in Hamburg last week on business where I entered, out of curiousity, the most elite gentleman’s club in all of Germany.

I have never seen such attractive prostitutes in my life. But even with the low dollar, they were only $375 per hour.

I won’t cheat on my woman however. I chose properly unlike guys like Spitzer and Bill Clinton who probably got roped into marrying a feminist who could help them get elected as a Democrat.

So does that mean he was more than just a client?

It certainly sounds like it.
